Make and Receive Phone Calls in the New Version of the Salesbuilder Sample Flex Application

March 27, 2009 By 48 Comments

I updated my Salesbuilder sample Flex/Adobe AIR application with a couple of new interesting features:

  1. Ribbit integration: allows you to make and receive calls from within the application
  2. KapIt Visualizer component to represent the org chart
  3. ILog calendar component

I recorded a quick screencast to show the new (and previous features) of the application. You can watch it in the player below, however, I highly recommend you click here to watch it in HD (go full screen for a better viewing experience. Also make sure HD is on).

Click on the badge below to install the application.

Please upgrade your Flash Player This is the content that would be shown if the user does not have Flash Player 9.0.115 or higher installed.

NOTE: You must create a Ribbit developer account (free) to be able to use the phone service. Once you have a Ribbit account, click the Options menu item in Salesbuilder and enter your Ribbit user id and password.

    Hi Christophe,

    What a beautiful and functional application. I think we need more samples like this to get AIR and FLEX more within the enterprise application realm. Keep up the good work.

    Thanks.

    I have question related to loading local XML using HTTPService and use-proxy=false. It works fine using Flex builder and it doesn’t using Flex Ant task any idea? I debugged the issue found xml being present in bin-debug directory using Flex builder but while compiling using Ant its not copying the XML to output directory. I’m missing some mxmlc option?

    Hi,

    Thank you for application. Can we edit the source and marketing it? Or can we use our version in our company? The other question is which component you used for Adobe’s Market History graph?

    Hi Christophe,

    I’m wondering since a while how do you design these nice icons within your demos ?
    Fireworks, Illustrator ?
    Maybe you’ll have a tip to dig in ?

    Thanks for all your great job anyway !

    :-)

    May 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm

    [...] J’ai déjà sondé certains développeurs dans la communauté et certains expriment leurs craintes quant à la terminaison “Flash”. Ils trouvent que cela fait moins professionel que “Flex”, moins “Entreprise”. Je pense que nous devons tous désormais défendre la plateforme Flash, dans son ensemble: la vidéo, les applications riches, les animations, les jeux, sur le bureau (avec AIR), et sur le mobile. C’est une plateforme unique et il faut inscrire dans l’esprit des entreprises que Flash n’est pas juste un environnement d’exécution de banners. A ce sujet, je vous invite à tester et à montrer l’application AIR du New-York Time. Elle montre toute la puissance du nouveau moteur de texte de Flash. Et pour l’entreprise, testez impérativement la dernière version de l’application SalesBuilder de Christophe Coenraets. [...]
